Chapter 282: Development

To say that for the situation of Fusang, Zhao Xu, who was in Bianliang, the imperial capital of the Great Song Empire, naturally knew everything about it, for no other reason, because these assassinations were all under his instruction and secretly carried out by the ninjas belonging to the Great Song Dynasty.

"During this time, did any of the daimyo of Fuso contact us about the trade of strategic materials?" In the imperial study, Zhao Xu stood in front of the huge sand table and asked the ministers standing beside him.

After Zhao Xu's words, Liu Shihai, the head of the household department who was in charge of all the trade of the Imperial Merchant House, said to Zhao Xu: "Long live Hui, so far, only Tetsuo Heifu and his Mori Yifu have contacted us, and the daimyo of Sasaki and other territories have not intended to buy ordnance and grain from us. ”

"Don't worry, as long as they start fighting, they will have to buy these things sooner or later, the military department, have all the ordnance replaced by our army been transported to the designated location?"

"Long live Hui, so far, the old weapons and armor replaced by the garrisons on the Liangzhejiang Road and the Gyeonggi area have arrived at the Hangzhou wharf warehouse, as long as we receive the delivery news from the contact person on the Fusang side, we can immediately dispatch merchant ships through the household department and Xiangfusang."

Zhao Xu is actually not worried at all that the weapons and armor replaced by his army will not be sold, because Fusang has not begun to recover after the dispute between the Taira and Genji, and then the chaotic era of the two kings and the disputes between the princes, the entire Fusang country does not have so many people and time to grow food and forge weapons, so Zhao Xu is still full of confidence in this regard.

Time flies quickly, this day, finally came to the day of the burial of the mountain ape and the peace of the minister, without this moral constraint, the battle for the throne of the two brothers Sasaki and Tetsuo is probably about to start completely, and those who are waiting for the changes and are ready to wait for the opportunity to make a move, I am afraid that they will also appear one by one.

"Ah~Ya Yan Butterfly~One Library, One Library......"

In the Fusang Imperial Palace, not far from the coffin of the Pingfu Mountain Ape, there was a sudden burst of women's rapid gasps and men's low roars.

Through the closed door, I saw that the two stripped flesh worms were constantly squirming rapidly, and the sturdy man on the woman's body, under the dark skin was a piece of angular muscle, with his constantly shaking body, like a little mouse, constantly moving back and forth in his body.

"Ahh

"Ahh

With two soothing sounds, the two reached the peak of joy at the same time, and the man seemed to have hollowed out the bones of his whole body, and he was heavily covered on the woman's body.

On the other hand, the woman, there is a trace of indescribable complexity hidden under the flush on her face, the man in front of her is her husband's son, the young self, except for this beautiful and moving skin, there is no power to protect herself and her son who was born only a few months old, yes, this woman is the deceased Hirafu Mountain Ape's most favored young concubine Okita Apricori, and the man who pressed on her is the second son of the Hirafu Mountain Ape - Hirafu Sasaki. At the cost of her body, she has a chance to survive, a sad woman, in the war-torn Fuso, I'm afraid this is the only way for her to continue to live a decent life.

"Your Highness, the hour is coming, let's go out quickly, so as not to miss the hour, and someone will trouble you later." Okita Apricot pushed weakly, and Sasaki said.

"Hey, hey, beauty, just put your heart in your belly, hey, hey, hey, hey, ......hey, Sasaki looked at the woman pressed under him with a lewd smile, and generally continued to say to her: "At least half of the ministers in the current court are my people, and they want to compete with me with some incompetent waste, which is simply wishful thinking, but you are right to remind you, today is the day of my father's funeral, and I can't let others grab my handle today," After speaking, Flat clothes Sasaki rubbed the two huge softness of Okita Apricot pear with a lewd smile and said: "Hey, hey, beauty, tonight, I'll meet you again, hey, hey, hey, hey, he......y, he

Returning to the imperial study of the Great Song Empire, Zhao Xu, who was standing in front of the sand table, said to the ministers beside him: "So far, looking at the entire east, except for Fusang and the Siberian region north of the Liaozhou North Road, all regions have been included in the territory of our country, and those small khanates in the Siberian region are completely not to be feared. All of them are classified as the northern provinces of our country, and judging from the current national military situation, the western border of our country and the southeast peninsula in the south, these two places contain our nearly 900,000 troops, coupled with the vast territory of our country, and the remaining 1 million troops stationed all over the country, it is really a bit stretched, and since I ascended the throne as emperor, our country has given the soldiers every year, the supply of grain and grass, the renewal and maintenance of weapons and armor and other military expenditures. It has risen from 170,000,000 taels of silver a year to 3,090,000,000 taels of silver now, accounting for nearly one-tenth of all the country's income. ”

Zhao Xu's words were really a bit ambiguous, so Lu Junyi, the secretary of the Ministry of War, said to Zhao Xu with some hesitation: "What does Your Majesty mean - disarmament?" ”

"No, I really haven't thought about disarmament, my country's land area is too vast, disarmament is simply unrealistic, what I mean is that we can't blindly expand our foreign military, trade, and constantly communicate with other countries, so that our people can live a more prosperous life, through war, we have the whole East in our pockets, but we can't always use war to solve everything, we can't always use plunder to get what we don't have, and sometimes, The shackles of trade will be more advantageous than war, and when those countries that are afraid of our military power begin to get used to the shadow of our Great Song Dynasty by their side, when that time is the time when they are most inseparable from us. After speaking, Zhao Xu turned his head to Liu Shihai and said, "Our merchant ships are now mainly trading with those countries. ”

"Long live, our main trade partners at present are European countries, and although we also have trade contacts with countries in the Western Regions, it is relatively rare." Liu Shihai said respectfully to Zhao Xu.

"Through the sea, we can trade with all countries in the world, so why can't we increase trade with the countries of the Western Regions, they have a lot of fine goods."

"Yes, Your Majesty, after a while, Weichen will arrange to increase the commodity trade of the countries in the Western Regions." Liu Shihai bowed down and took the order.

"We have to continue to go on the trade at sea, but on land, our great ancestors left the Silk Road for me, we can't give up, through sea and land transportation, our goods can be continuously transported to all corners of the world, and at the same time, our people can also accept more of the different cultures in the world and our different cultural customs in China, we want all the people in the world to know that our Great Song Dynasty not only has sharp swords, And the hands of friendship. ”

After many years of being an emperor, Zhao Xu gradually lost the cruel attitude towards foreign countries when he was just the emperor, and more importantly, he strengthened exchanges and exchanges, introduced what his country lacked, and made his country not work behind closed doors, because the world is developing, and only by constantly attracting the excellent aspects of others, strengthening his comprehensive ability, and constantly improving his country's shortcomings, can he continue to grow, lead the world forever, and stand on the top of the east of the world.
